no, but you can get them as mercenaries
In the game, Muslim factions CAN build them.
AFAIK in history they were not that common in the east.
Anyone with knowledge care to elucidate?
Baybars the most famous Mamluke sultan was nicknamed the crossbowman. The answer is muslim armies did use crossbows historically.
